  Description: Sa’di was one of greatest Persian writers of both classical prose and poetry, Sa‘di was revered in his time as a man of great wisdom and passion. Sometimes said to have lived over one hundred years, the body of his work was written in the thirteenth century. An indefatigable traveler, a mentor to the pious, and an analyst of morals both public and private, his best writing focused on the themes of physical and spiritual love.

Filled with extracts of the poet’s melodious and insightful writing, and critical analysis thereof, this revealing biography examines why he was so idolised until the 1950s, and why since then he has fallen into relative obscurity. Focusing on the themes of both physical and spiritual love stitched through Sa‘di’s writing, as well as the impact of his many years traveling, Katouzian sheds a unique insight on who he calls "the poet of life, love and compassion".
